Re: Fairing installation, turn signal stalk bits
Are you sure about that? I just replaced a bent stalk on my '74 and needed the longer one for the "S" bike to accommodate the fairing. See below form Boxer 2 Valve

Re: Fairing installation, turn signal stalk bits
I just looked at mine and 9 is on the inside and presses on the larger part of the stalk. I assume 7 and 8 are on that side too. With the outside parts and the turn signal body (I have the metal ones)

Re: Idle
My 75 once started unless the temperature is very cold can return the enrichment circuit to off. You might enrich your idle screws a bit and see if that helps. Sorry for late reply. -- *Buford I.

Re: How much variation is there in factory original paint jobs?
Mine is much darker :-) Original factory finish from early 1974. Maybe keeping it in the garage for 47 years prevented the orangy/yellowy fade?

Re: How much variation is there in factory original paint jobs?
I hadn't planned to sell it, but if you know somebody in need of a D/O fairing have them PM me. I think it's interesting that yours matches Vendor A's more closely than the other ones. That tends to
